Let's play.

I've removed bought players such as Williams and Barassi.
Players who got paid outside the rules for the majority of their career in Silvagni

You have Jezza, Douls and Nichols left.

We have Coleman and Reynolds.

By that count we have 2 Legends in the side each, so we'll remove the making up the numbers player in Douls, and let's be honest, Bill Hutchison was 10 times the player.

So, 2 a piece. One has a prestigious award named after him and the other has 3 Brownlows.

So that trumps your remaining 2 players.

That leaves it as players that matter
Essendon 2
Carlton 0

Forever in our shadow
I love the way you do business. You wouldn't be a real estate agent by any chance?
 
Again, 'by default' is a crock of shit.

A premiership won by a round robin finals system is still a premiership- that was how the premiership was to be that won year.

Would you be counting it if Carlton had won one or both of those?

Or would you be saying they'd won premierships 'by default'? No, no you wouldn't.


'By default' only applies if a runner-up is awarded a flag because the premier is stripped of their title for some reason, or if one team 'wins' in the event of another forfeiting (say the England v Pakistan Test match in 2006).

But keep digging that hole, this is fun.
So what you are saying is Carlton should be awarded the 1993 flag "by default". I'll live with 17*.

If you want to keep it as is, oh well.

Carlton 16
Essendon 16*

* one or more flags were won by default

Last time I checked, we haven't been stripped of 1993.

Carlton, however, folded faster that I can say "hi" on the day it most counted- how piss weak, and how typical.

I see your asterisk and raise you a testicle- Carlton lacked them that day. ;)

Funny, Carlton's most recent #1 pick was the results of tanking, ours was pick #10. Looking forward to Joe dancing on a few Bluebagger heads
